Fridger, the first message of each new user is moderated by me, so there is no spam posts. Spam accounts because of it remain inactive. Once a month, I will delete inactive users from the database. This can be done more often. My technique was. Everything's under control,

Just look in your forum: there John VV has now independently criticized the abundance of bots/ dealers/... among your users. If you'd delete all these now (as we do here), then the user resonance for the new Celestia forums would look considerably weaker...http://celestiaproject.net/forum/viewto ... da1d70d1f8I would nevertheless advise to delete these guys NOW, otherwise you won't be able to locate the real Celestians in a month from now

Forget about web.archive.org. Firstly there are only thumbnails. Secondly there is only a small number of images. And we need not only Forum data base. We need the files! At a minimum, the folder with attachments and even a folder with avatars. Without them, I will be able to restore full forum, but no pictures uploaded as attachments, and without all the files and add-ons have been added as an attachment. The forum can display only images that are inserted earlier from photo sharing site, if they are still available there.

Done. I can not keep one for all. But Selden refused to help. Guckytos also refused.

Glad to see that the shatters.net forum is back. Thanks Alexell for your unrelenting commitment.

As i always mentioned: In my opinion it is an advantage to have two forums. One for the scientifically interested user. One for the amateur astronomers, the dreamers, SF-fans and gamers. Which is especially important for the younger generation. Better flying through Celestia-Space than wasting time with shooting games...

The SF-fan, for example, do not care that the binding energy of the whole universe contained in atoms is not sufficient enough to create a wormhole. And all the metals in our solar system are not sufficient to build an "Enterprise"-fleet ...

I guess I don't need to stress that at CelestialMatters you are always VERY welcome. I seriously hope that you don't erase your posts here! We are now entering the stage of preparing for a first release of celestia.Sci. I had hoped that you could contribute some of your excellent work.

Well a separation into two forums is a possibility. We had CelestialMatters with plenty of action already when the original shatters.net was still alive. Yet a single forum has many advantages. Anyway, I now can have fun reading my 8808 posts (!) from shatters.net times
